[PATCH] squashfs: fix mtime underflow on 64 bit system

From: zhengbin
Date: Thu Jan 17 2019 - 03:18:20 EST


If we change the file mtime to 1969, mksquashfs and mount,
the atime/mtime of this file will be underflow. The reason is
treating timestamps with the high bit set as positive
times(before 1970), which should be set as negative times
just like on 32 bit system. After this, the poissble range
of timestamps will be 1901-2038(prev is 1970-2106) on 64
bit system.
